Blockbuster has launched their brand new service to customers which will allow them to download movies directly to their computer.  The "Blockbuster On Demand" service requires the use of a box, which is free if you rent 25 movies in advance for $99.
The move is, undoubtedly, in order to keep up with other companies, such as Netflix, who have the service already available to their customers. 
Over 2,000 movies and television shows will be available at first, with more titles to be added in the future.  Jim Keyes, Blockbuster’s CEO, says that they "are focusing on quality vs. quantity" offering primarily new releases.
The service will cost between $1.99-$3.99 and the rental will be able to be saved for 30 days, and then 24 hours upon watching the film.
